any news on david villa's move to man city or arsenal?

by levy1261/31/2013 8:44:09 PM

@levy126: More chance of Villa moving to Villa than either of those two

by Neil Macdonald1/31/2013 8:44:32 PM

Wikipedia announcing manchester United have signed Diame for £3.5 million on 31/01/13 Any truth?

by mickeyone more1/31/2013 8:44:35 PM

@mickeyonemore: Unnamed club at the moment as far as we know

by Neil Macdonald1/31/2013 8:44:51 PM

Really needed a physical defensive midfielder. Allen is way to small and if we lose lucas then we have nobody.

by shaun1/31/2013 8:47:02 PM

Just been taken off the website about Diame. Strange

Chris Lepkowski on WBA latestLooking bleak at the moment on the Chris Baird front. Hearing that personal terms are a struggle #wba

by Neil Macdonald1/31/2013 8:51:37 PM

Greg O'Keeffe has just confirmed EFC not the club in for Diame

by Neil Macdonald1/31/2013 8:53:19 PM

please are there any late transfer news related to Man united?

by sam1/31/2013 8:54:50 PM

any chance of Diame heading to Liverpool, or is that just silly?

by Limetime1/31/2013 9:00:59 PM

@Limetime: Looking into that Lime - would be a good signing IMHO

by Neil Macdonald1/31/2013 9:01:20 PM

Diame was briefly linked to Man United, but there's nothing in that say the Manchester Evening News

by Neil Macdonald1/31/2013 9:02:03 PM

Evening all - hope you're enjoying our transfer deadline day live blog. This is Dan Kay from the Liverpool Echo and we'll be looking after proceedings until 9pm, bringing you all the latest developments as we reach the business end of the day.

by Dan Kay edited by Gareth Rogers1/31/2013 9:02:08 PM

Have Liverpool actually got any more money to spend this transfer window?

by David1/31/2013 9:02:16 PM

Anything on Reading please?

by Royals1/31/2013 9:03:01 PM

Don't say Reading has bought Diame. He would be a good asset to most teams but Brian McD seems to have a habit of collecting defensive midefieldesr

by Jock down south1/31/2013 9:03:01 PM

Night all - thanks for following the fun with me. See you in August!

by Neil Macdonald1/31/2013 9:03:29 PM

Cheers Neil. All seems quiet at the Madejski guys. The Reading official Facebook page just ticked over, but it was to add a new cover picture. More news as I get it!

by Gareth Rogers1/31/2013 9:04:03 PM

Any truth in the Ince to Man City rumour?

by David1/31/2013 9:04:05 PM

My understanding is, Ince is going nowhere.

by Gareth Rogers1/31/2013 9:04:17 PM

One major player has left South Wales today and that's Danny Graham who left Swansea for Sunderland for £5m. Here's what he said: "It's a massive club. As soon as I knew Sunderland were interested I wanted to come up here. Now thankfully it's all done. This is a massive club and speaking to the manager was massive factor for me. Once I had spoken to Martin, there was only one place I was going."

by Gareth Rogers1/31/2013 9:05:53 PM

Any news from Everton? Or are we just losing out on every singing we try?

by Imnotsure1/31/2013 9:06:08 PM

No news at Everton right now. I will let you know if that changes but unlikely at this stage.

by Gareth Rogers1/31/2013 9:06:26 PM

Ince wants to come, we dont want to pay the amount they want. He'll be a lot cheaper soon.

by TouchMyButland1/31/2013 9:06:34 PM

This Odemwinge situation is amazing. No idea what will happen there. It gives Swansea a problem though as they are trying to complete a deal for Jamie Mackie from QPR but I guess Harry is busy.

WBA statement: Albion have moved to clarify developments regarding Peter Odemwingie after the striker was filmed a short while ago arriving at Loftus Road.The club can confirm they have held further discussions with QPR today but those talks have so far proven fruitless and no agreement has been reached.Albion would also like to make clear that Peter has not been given permission to speak to QPR about a potential move.

by Gareth Rogers1/31/2013 9:07:46 PM

Any news on Cardiff FC

by Dan1/31/2013 9:08:08 PM

Hi Dan. Malky got his man yesterday when he signed Simon Lappin. Nat Jarvis has gone on loan to Kidderminster today but that is the close of business at the CCS.

by Gareth Rogers1/31/2013 9:08:47 PM

Is Ayre/Rodgers (anyone with influence to bring in a player) still at Anfield?

by David1/31/2013 9:08:51 PM

Not to my knowledge David but I will update you.

by Gareth Rogers1/31/2013 9:09:05 PM

moyes said he will see how jan transfer window goes before signing, what do we thinknow he will do

by Nobby1/31/2013 9:09:11 PM

All seems quiet at Goodison Nobby. I will let you know though.

by Gareth Rogers1/31/2013 9:09:31 PM

is wilson palacios going to villa

by Dave Lloyd1/31/2013 9:09:33 PM

Ok thanks wa

by Dan1/31/2013 9:10:01 PM

Not losing any of the big guns is a good window for Everton.

by goaltastic1/31/2013 9:10:30 PM

Dave - Villa and Stoke trying to get a deal done but time is running out.

by Gareth Rogers1/31/2013 9:10:40 PM

Chris Lepkowski in the Midlands says Peter Odemwinge has now left Loftus Road. He adds: 'Jerome Thomas, meanwhile, has not signed for Blackburn as yet.'

by Gareth Rogers1/31/2013 9:11:39 PM

Our man in Liverpool James Pearce has said LFC not the unnamed club in for Diame. Both Merseyside clubs ruled out

by Neil Macdonald1/31/2013 9:11:53 PM

Greg O'Keefe up in Liverpool says "One loan exit from Everton is likely to be Magaye Gueye to French club Brest. Deal nearly done

by Gareth Rogers1/31/2013 9:13:34 PM

Fulham have signed Stanislav Manolev from PSV: He says: "I came here to play but I know that I have to fight for my place."

Stanislav told fulhamfc.com after signing. "I am looking forward to playing in the Barclays Premier League because I believe it is the best competition in the world.

"I know Martin Jol already because when I came to Holland, we played against Ajax when he was the coach. I hope that if I play well here then I will be able to stay beyond the summer."

by Gareth Rogers1/31/2013 9:17:02 PM

Any loan deal for Suso out of the question?

by David1/31/2013 9:17:18 PM

It's still a possibility. But, as I keep saying, time is running short now.

by Gareth Rogers1/31/2013 9:17:41 PM

I have heard that Darren Bent could be off to Stoke with Kenwyn Jones coming to Villa plus a few million. What do you think, have you any knowledge of this

by Dave Lloyd1/31/2013 9:17:43 PM

Dave, I do know Swansea have been chasing Kenwyne Jones all month but that looks extremely unlikely now. He played for Stoke last weekend so may be staying put. As for Bent, it is amazing nobody has made a solid bid.

by Gareth Rogers1/31/2013 9:19:01 PM

lfc havent even been linked with a player today. Did we even have office hours or just took the day off?
